Tax Included & How to Back Out Sales Tax

This article describes a workaround for including tax in the prices of inventory items. Because items can only be taxable or non-taxable, the business must manually figure out later the total amount of tax collected.

IMPORTANT: If you follow this guide, tax will not show up on customer receipts or in BackOffice reporting because it will be included in each item’s sales price. Be aware that tax laws can change at any time and you should contact a tax professional for specific tax advice regarding your business.
